Hi,

We are using Outlook for sending and receiving POP3 mails. When we send a
new appointment or new Meeting request or update for an existing meeting. The
accept/decline button is missing. We are using Outlook 2000 with SP3. This
issue started after upgrading to SP3. Is there an solution available apart
from uninstalling outlook 2000 SP3. As we installed SP3 to get some other
fixes in excel and word.

Thanks and Regards,
Govindaraj P.

There is a known incompatiblity between Outlook 2000 and later versions related to reminders on meeting requests sent in iCalendar (aka iCal) format. To resolve this issue, do one of the following:

-- Contact Microsoft Product Support Services to obtain the Outlook 2000 post-SP3 hotfix described in this article: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=823199

-- Tell the senders to remove any reminder before sending you an iCal meeting request.

-- Tell the senders to send to you in native Outlook meeting request (RTF) format, not as iCal.
